    This is honestly her best album to date. It's not Pop. It's something different, something more personal. I feel like Rih had a message with ANTI and just let her vision be true. And, the fact that she Co-Wrote every song and had even lead-writing credits makes this even better. It's an amazing Album with a great effort.

    De longe, o melhor álbum da carreira da Riri. Um álbum super harmônico, com a evolução vocal da cantora super notável à cada faixa. Destaques para "Consideration", uma música agressiva e ao mesmo tempo dançante, que aliás super combinou com a voz da SZA nesse featuring; "Desperado", uma confissão de Rihanna para os seus fãs, com o sample de "Waiting Game" da BANKS, muito bem aproveitado;De longe, o melhor álbum da carreira da Riri.

O álbum só decepcionou no número de faixas, que poderia ter sido bem maior, se contarmos com a espera de quase 3 anos por um álbum. Fora isso, ANTI cumpriu seu papel com maestria, foi anti às expectativas de todos, que estavam esperando um compilado de hits. NOTA 10!!!!… Expand

    ANTI é totalmente diferente dos álbuns diferentes, mostrando uma Rihanna diferente, que mergulha nas músicas e volta suas origens, com dancehall, r&b. A inserção de trap, novidade, faz o CD ser ainda mais atrativo, fazendo com que a Bad Gal RirI atinja um novo patamar em sua carreira musical

    Poder é fazer o que você quer e Rihanna é um exemplo de poder. Ela lançou o seu último álbum ANTI do jeito que ela queria e isso é admirável. Poucos cantores nessa indústria atual fazem o que querem, geralmente são robôs da gravadora ou são obrigados a ficar na mesmice. Rihanna soltou as amarras e brincou com a mistura de estilos em ANTI.

She has proved herself that she's no longer a pop-puppet under control and not without a reason she's called a force to be reckoned with.

    One of the most daring and dynamic pop albums of all time! From Rih's heart-wrenching ballad "Love on the Brain" to her dark rhythmic "Desperado" to "Kiss it Better," a power rock anthem, we get a sense of who Rih truly is: a multitalented artist who isn't afraid to push boundaries and show her true colours.

    "ANTi" is a disappointed. Three years in the making and this is the result? You'd think she'd deliver a revolutionary, well-produced, brilliant piece of art.

Pretentious to the max. From her horrible vocals to the atrocious productions, I can say I enjoyed the silence in between the songs. Rihanna used to bring the goods to the table but now she seems to have left them somewhere else. It is hard to believe that someone is nice enough to spend their hard-earned money to buy this piece of **** I wish I could give this album a score below 0 because it is truly one of the worst albums I have ever listened to. But thankfully, I listened to "Revival" by Selena Gomez and recovered from this horrible experience.… Expand

    Not being the biggest Rihanna stan, I thought we were getting a flawless new album but that didn't happen. There are fillers on this album and they just don't sound like something worth waiting since 2012, you do the math. ANTI is an okay album, it doesn't have the same quality as her last albums did. It was a dumb move taking all of the singles she had released this past year off the record.

    I feel like she's only been spending some a few hours to make this album with a lot of long interludes. There are some good ones like Kiss It Better & Love on the Brain but nothing much. Always the same world as Unapologetic. Navy had to wait for something that she made not in a perfectly and good way. Sorry but not sorry for them

    An excellent masterpiece by the pop goddess.
    13 (mostly) melancholic track, driven by earthy and organic production.
    This is a Rihanna album with a twist, every song isn't a hit from the get go and feels like something for the eternity.
    This record sounds like a potential classic to me.

    Pop's biggest rebellion was definitely worth the wait.

    Rihanna's most cohesive album yet, ANTI is a bit different from Rihanna's past albums in that there is no trace of any club ready "bangers" and or even much of a straightforward pop song here.

That being said, the album is held together by a series of brief interludes among the full-length songs. Although it does fuse many genres, the album has a much more downtempo feel then previous works like 'Unapologetic' and 'Talk That Talk'. The highlight of the album is the blissful 'Kiss It Better', no doubt the best contender for the next single. Another stand out track is 'Love On The Brain' a 50's style ballad where Rihanna's voice soars to places never heard before. Album opener 'Consideration' which features SZA is a confident kiss-off to possibly and ex but mostly likely the music industry/media. Other album highlights include: 'Same Ol' Mistakes', 'Never Ending', and 'Desperado'. The lowest point of the album is without a doubt the auto-tune laced, Travis Scott/The Weeknd produced, 'Woo'. Without this track, the album would flow much better but there're enough great songs on the record that this lack-luster let down can be ignored.… Expand

    Re her past albums, I've frequently complained that much of her output sounded as if she was barely present save for phoning in the vocals. On first listen this sounds more interesting than previous albums, simply that it's less predictable; more Rihanna, less record co. committee. First album still has most appeal but artists with this much talent need to grow past just releasing catchy singles.

    If I could give it a negative score, I would. The fact she recorded Higher and someone said "yeah that's great let's keep it" shows she has no sense. Might as well lose the team. She can save herself loads of money by firing all the yes men around her.

    Sexy but vulnerable. Different yet still effervescent. With this album, Rihanna seems not to care for radio's or anyone else's approval except for those who can relate to the sound, emotion and content spilling out of the tracks. Precisely for those reasons, this is a big plus to her catalogue.

    Eu não apoio o ANTi de maneira alguma. Um álbum com descartes de outros artistas, que não tem um conceito definido. Não esperava menos da Rihanna, que tem 10 anos de carreira nas costas e é vista como novata até hoje, Só fatos amore.

    Very disappointing release from Rihanna. While I see and respect the change in musical direction, the album just does not deliver.

And to make things worse, the lead single is probably one of the worst songs on the album. Go figure. I am a big Rihanna fan, but apart from Rated R and Loud, she has not been able to deliver an actual album. She makes collections of songs.… Expand

    ANTI is so raw and really shows how deep her sound and artistic ability go. She has found her voice and her experimentation with this new sound has paid off! I understand why she is calling this her FIRST ALBUM. One of her songs, Higher, is truly beautiful and the intentional rasp adds to the overall "feels" & chills you get listening to it.

    A messy array of experimental sounds that do not conform to a single thought or emotion. Though Rihanna tries to come off as a serious artist, her thoughtfulness is lacking and she should stick to lyrics of her past that provide relatable insight and thought, instead of trying to come off as some sort of stylish hipster.

A barbadiana Robyn Rihanna Fenty provou em seu hiato que pode ser uma ótima modelo, se comparado com sua carreira de cantora, que não deve durar muito depois desse lastimável lançamento.

    Não sou fã da Rihanna, mas venho por meio deste deixar minhas sinceras primeiras impressões.

    CONSIDERATION: Rihanna soa debochadamente/ironicamente ao interpretar tal faixa (o que sabe fazer de melhor). Apesar de ter sido uma participação rápida, SZA consegue se destacar facilmente no post-chorus. Acredito que o ápice da canção seja o verse-2 quando sons de mãos (palmas, etc.) são introduzidos no instrumental.

    JAMES JOINT: Uma boa introdução.

    KISS IT BETTER: Não esperava menos porque Natalia Kills e Jeff Bhasker deixaram seus talentosos traços em torno da música. O chorus é simples, mas é o ponto forte da canção.

    WORK: Letra vaga e o instrumental pode ser encontrado em diversas canções, ou seja, comum. Porém, é divertida e, na minha opinião, não dá pra ficar apenas parado ouvindo a música.

    DESPERADO: Deliciosa! Intrigado com a composição por ser subjetiva.

    WOO: Hit-Boy, Travis Scott, The-Dream, The Weeknd e Rihanna na mesma canção? Apenas sinta o poder. Alguns pedaços da faixa parecem ser experimentais e sinto uma "vibe" Crystal Castles quando a interprete repete "send for me" inúmeras vezes.

    NEEDED ME: Ao ouvir "Mustard on the beat ho!" pensei "caralho, já amei". Mustard......obrigado. Pontos para a composição e digníssima interpretação da Rihanna.

    YEAH, I SAID IT: Maravilhosa.

    SAME OL' MISTAKES: Ainda estou digerindo.

    NEVER ENDING: Completamente um amor.

    LOVE ON THE BRAIN: A faixa mais sincera do álbum. Estou devastado e encantado! Comum (lembra Superpower, Ave Maria, Girl Crush, etc.) e ao mesmo tempo tão original. Me identifiquei com a letra e a interpretação é sobrenatural (mostra o quão grande Rihanna vem se tornando como artista).

    HIGHER: O vocal forçado e com falhas propositais, uma marca da cantora Sia (Chandelier, Eye of the Needle, Fire Meet Gasoline, etc.), dão um grande poder a faixa. Estou dopado e querendo mais. Por que apenas míseros minutos?

    CLOSE TO YOU: Encerra o álbum de forma agradável. A balada é um pouco triste com letra objetiva mostrando que ela não quer perder a/o conexão/contato com seu amor.

    Tenho certeza de que o tempo só me fará viciar e amar mais este álbum.

She needed 39 co-writers to craft the album, she really tried to make a good work but failed miserably. I guess this is what happens when you let talentless people have creative control over music. Even Lady Gaga's latest critically-panned pop release "ARTPOP" is indeed 3x better than "ANTI", whereas single songs from albums like Taylor Swift's "1989" ans Beyoncé's self-titled are better than this poor Rih release in full.

    ANTI is revolutionary; not only does it integrate futuristic, adventurous and bold songs such as "Consideration" and "Kiss it Better", Rihanna also demonstrates her outstandingly unrivalled vocals in "Higher" and "Love On the Brain".

    I could give her credit for trying, but it's just not happening. She simply don't have the voice for strong vocals as required in songs like "Higher", so she sounds strained and... bad.

This album is bordering on chaotic: from the beginning to end, there's a lack of cohesiveness and, at times, a serious lack of substance within the material.

    Don't get me wrong, I applaud Rihanna for trying to be experimental and trying to grow musically. However, that's all it is. It's an artist who has little artistic musicianship, 'trying' to be experimental. Delving deeper into this, it's actually not Rihanna who's even trying to be anything, it's the clustered team of producers and songwriters behind every track. That's the problem with this album, whilst it seems to be her most personal to date in some parts such as 'Kiss it Better', you do have to wonder whether these are Rihanna's experiences or those of someone else.

    Anti is an album that sees its artist trying to escape the convention of her stardom. Does she fail? Not really. With all its flaws, it's not a bad album; though, nor is it a good one. It's very middle of the road. Nevertheless, I hope this doesn't discourage Rihanna and she pursues this aspiration to grown as an artist, it can only do her good.

    Esse sem duvida alguma é o melhor album da Rihanna desde o LOUD, os vocais estão bons e esta bem produzido. Porém você não sente a essência da Rihanna nesse album, parece que ela pegou um monte de musica aleatória só pra dizer "eu não sou farofeira". O ponto alto do album é Consideration, Kiss It Better e Love On The Braim, que tem uma notória inspiração em "Superpower" da Beyoncé.

    One of the most coherent and surprising big-ticket pop albums in years. [Apr 2016, p.79]

    In many ways, ANTI is a step in the right direction for Rihanna, creatively.

    It's confusing, with flaky endings and mood swings, and an utterly compelling mix of not caring at all and desperately caring. [Apr 2016, p.87]
